| Back when [[Warhammer 40,000]] was still called [[Rogue Trader]], all of the [[First Founding]] [[Space Marine]] Chapters were known, and the [[Rainbow Warriors]] were one of them. Nothing else was known of them, except for the fact that the [[Sisters of Battle]] curb-stomped them at one point. Yeah, [[Games Workshop]] didn't think too highly of these guys, and in a Third Edition [[White Dwarf]] article, they were declared to be of a "later founding." They also hold the title of silliest space marine chapter name of all time.
| |
| | |
| In the Fifth Edition Space Marines [[Codex]], the planet "Prism" is designated as the homeworld of "<<record deleted>>," a chapter which bears the Rainbow Warriors' insignia. Prism has been found! Get the [[6th edition]] and look in the Northwestern border of the Vidar Sector located in the Imperius Dominatus.
| |
| | |
| Somewhere along the way, people thought it would be cool to envision the Rainbow Warriors as Aztec Marines.
| |
| | |
| It is noted that the image for Sisters of Battle in the Rogue Trader rulebook has a Sister shoot down what appears to be a Rainbow Warrior. This combined with the record deleted statement above suggest they were filthy heretics who got purged.
| |
| | |
| There's also a basically-the-Rainbow-Warriors chapter called the Death Strike. Who hate the Ultramarines for helping to excommunicate their brother chapter. HMM.
| |
| | |
| They're still around in the 41st Millennium if the 6th Edition Codex is anything to go by. They, the Relictors and the Fire Lords fought a bloody powerful Demonic incursion, but ended up losing a fair chunk of their chapter - including their Chapter Master.
